efficiencies. For instance, if there is a significant amount of time that
the engine spends idling between full power operation, such as can happen
with locomotives or heavy construction equipment, then the average
efficiency of a diesel engine can be higher than that of a turbine.
> Everything that I have seen regarding the efficiency of IC (internal

> This is especially true with gasoline and natural gas engines.
> Turbines in general are more efficient than the conventional piston > engine.
